Opinions Needed: Golden Armor Rogue One Rebel Soldier Helmet Kit

[Captain Dunsel]

I picked up one of Woodman's excellent helmet covers here and a great Shapeways torchlight cover but am in desperate need of a blast shield and other greeblies to get my Rogue One Rebel Helmet started.

I stumbled across the build on Youtube from Golden Armor, as well as their website selling their kit.

Their kit appears to be based on the WWII / Korean War M1 vs. the Vietnam / Grenada M1.

Any opinions from anyone who has picked up a kit from them? The quality looks good to my eye.

The kit(s) may be found here:

Ouch!

I searched for Golden Armor thoroughly before posting this thread. I wonder why that thread was not found??

Thanks for the heads-up.

My search continues...

I "third" the steer clear. He's a known recaster and for taking people's money and not delivering. Take this from an old RPF gray beard...
